Opinions? Future baby names

I’m not pregnant, just thinking of baby names with my partner. Girls are our hardest to agree on!

We like statement names, but we aren’t keen on too much frilliness. Witchiness is always a plus for us!

Georgia
Sabrina
Serena
Rosemary
Josephine
Lorelei (too much of a marmite name?)
Genevieve (OTT?)
Elise
Susannah
Violet
Lily (does it age well?)

Comments greatly appreciated!

My favourite is Josephine, but no particular reason other than I like the full name, and I like andy likely shortenings.

I'm not keen on Genevieve - mainly from the spelling pov. I knew one years ago and she was always known as "jenny" but got cross when people who just heard her name would spell it like that. I just prefer names that are easier to spell.

I think Lily has been quite popular over the last few years.

I personally am not keen on Violet - I think any name that is "Vile" when reduced to one syllable is not a name I'd give to someone I love.

I don't really like Lorelei.
